107th Annual Commencement (2007)

Summary: More than 1,700 UMass Dartmouth graduates received diplomas at the University's 107th commencement exercises, held under sunny skies on Memorial Day Weekend in the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Peace Amphitheater.
U.S. Senator John F. Kerry, who delivered the commencement address, told more than 6,000 graduates, family members, friends, faculty, and university officials: "What we have is not guaranteed, and some of it is at risk...Go out and build your families, build your net worth, build whatever you want, build your careers; just don't forget to build your country while you are at it."
